What 59350 covers
This service covers surgical repair of a uterine defect recognized after the placenta is delivered, including a uterine rupture that requires closure. An obstetrician or other qualified surgeon typically performs it in the operating room or delivery suite during the delivery encounter. Routine closure of a cesarean uterine incision is part of the cesarean service; this code describes a distinct uterine repair, not that routine step.
The operative report should identify the injury, its location and extent, the repair performed, and why the work was separate from routine delivery closure. CMS assigns a 0-day global period, so same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included. When multiple procedures occur in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard 50% multiple-procedure reduction. An assistant at surgery may be paid. Modifier 50 is not appropriate for this single uterus repair; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.
This summary was written with AI assistance from CMS physician fee schedule data and checked against the CMS billing rules shown here. Rates on this page come directly from CMS files.

59350 billing questions
How is this different from routine closure during a cesarean delivery?
Routine closure of the cesarean uterine incision is part of the cesarean service. Report this code for a distinct uterine injury repair, with the operative note documenting the defect and additional repair.
Can it be reported with a delivery code?
It may be reported for a distinct uterine repair performed during the delivery encounter. Documentation should distinguish the repair from the delivery service and its routine closure work.
What documentation supports the repair?
Document the uterine injury's location and extent, the repair technique, and the clinical reason the work was separate from routine delivery closure.
Can an assistant surgeon be reported?
CMS permits payment for an assistant at surgery for this code. Co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.
How does the multiple-procedure reduction affect payment?
For procedures performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the other procedures are subject to the standard 50% reduction.
Does this code have a postoperative global period?
It has a 0-day global period. Same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included.
Where these rates come from
FeeBase calculates base physician payments from CMS work, practice-expense and malpractice RVUs, adjusted by each locality’s geographic indexes and the conversion factor. Services without a published rate are labeled, never given a made-up amount. Amounts are Medicare allowed amounts before claim adjustments: not a patient’s bill or a commercial rate.
